False Hair and Headaches.

A member of the medical profession
is credited with the statement. says
The Nev York Graphic, that the
practice of physicians has been con-
siderably diminished within the past
few years by certain change in femin-
inc fashions. The change re ferred to
is in the matter of wearing false hair.
Although it is still worn to considera-
BILE extent the custom of loading down
the head with heavy mass of false
coils and braids is a thing of the past.
and those who still resort to the habit
indulge in this form of ''beautification"
to very moderate extent, confining
their capillary increment chiefly to the
frizzes and bangs of airy lightness that
wave about their foreheads, and upon
The slightest provocation shed them
selves in generous profusion over the
surface of the young mans new winter
overcoat. In the age of heavy chignons
the general prevalence of severe head
aches, pains in the neck, weak eyes,
scalp affections, and a dozen other
feminine complaints were directly
traceable to the custom referred to.
Now they have for the most part disap.
peared, and authorities say that we are
to have healthier and more robust
race of women in the future. 1t is re-
marked, however, that the loss OF
practice resulting from this change OF
fashion to the medical profession has
been partially compensated by the in
creased use of cosmetics and the evils
resulting therefrom. Thus, as far as
actual gain is concerned, it proves to
be six of one and half a dozen of the
other, and shows that the age OF folly
is by no means yet at an end.

1t Was Not SheOl in Those Days.

In the good old days ''befo' de wah'

firmly fixed upon the rock of orthodox

A lady of our acquaintance tells a
good one illustrative of the above. She
and her brother were attendants upon
the Sunday school of the orthodox
church in the village in which they
lived. The Universalists were endeav-
oring to establish church there, and
held Sunday services and Sabbath
school in the town hall.
As the children were on the way to
Sunday school one day, the boy insist
ed upon leaving the beaten path and
attending the lately organized school.

In consequence of the young mans
contumacy the affair reached the di-
mensions of regular scene upon
the public street. in which sturdy boy
was marching off toward the hall, with
little girl hanging to his jacket shirt,
weeping in a heart broken fashion.

the English nobleman asked, Have
you not seal or family crest that you
will attach to this document?" Il
have sleeve button. sir, which will
answer the purpose, but thus far my

Watching Bear Hunt in a Mirror.

In 1S45, as John Mimic had to 60 up
the Columbia river, he took passage
with an Indian chief who had some
thing of retinue. There was SUBJ
chief, who looked after things of minor
Importance, and dusky maiden, to
whom old Pu-Pu Mox-Mox, who was
then a great chief and was destined
later to fall in battle in command of the
combined forces of the inland empire,
showed very devoted attention. There
were also sevaral slaves, who drove
the canoes with their paddles for
motive power. Somewhere on the
grand river, when among the ranges
that tower above Cape Horn, Mimic
noticed that the Indians acted very sim
gularly and rather suspiciously. They
stopped the canoes and looked down in
the water intently. Then two slaves
and Il sub-chief got into the smaller
canoe and started to cross the river.
Suddenly Mimic dropped on it, and
saw what the Indians saw. 1t was one
of those beautiful transparent days
when the air and water are as clear as
crystal. The sun of autumn either had
not risen so as to reach the deep canon
with it's rays, or had dropped behind
the western heights. Anyway, these
heights were reflected SO perfectly on
the surface of the river that the In
dams had watched the mountain sides
as they padded along. The cause of
their strange action was seeing bear
on high ridge across the river from
them eating berries. The two slaves
took the fusees and crossed the river to
attack. They climbed the bluff, took
aim, fired, missed. and the bear ran
away-he was not hurt All this Mimic
saw on the river surface without strain
ing his eyes to the mountains summit

Why Writing Paper is Cheap.

Passing by stationer's window a
journal reporter saw therein the an
nouncement. ''i2o sheets of this note
paper for 20 cents" Stepping inside.
the dealer. in answer to the reporter s
queries, said: Writing paper is now
cheaper in this country than ever it
was. Manufacturers have learned
how to work into it the maximum of
wood pulp and the minimum of rag.
There are writing papers made now
that we can buy at 25 cents a ream-
three-pound paper. We don't keep it,
though it has sale in country towns.
1t is nothing but ordinarily good news
paper calendered.
I'm 1873, when the panic came. all
the paper mills were running on me-
dunn grades of paper which was then
the best made in this country. The
panic destroyed the market for this
grade of paper, as there was glut
Previous to this time the fin est papers
we're al imported. The demand for
imported papers continued. Our
mills kept number of their best
workmen and began experimenting on
the better grades of paper. When the
panic came there was little paper in our
showcases that was not made in Ire
land, England, or France. Now there
isn't Il nickel's worth of imported pa
per in these cases. American work
men soon got to make as good or even
better papers than were made abroad.
When people nowadays hold up pa
per to see the water-mark they need
not think because it shows foreign
name that it is imported. 1t is as easy
to put such water-mark there by
American as by foreign manufacturers.
and our paper is better in quality than
the foreign. and sold at half the price.
"Thc cheapest papers, the wood
pulps, have no fiber and no strength.
Besides, with the wood pulp is used
more or less clay. Wood pulp is
bleached with chemicals, and when
such paper gets old it becomes yellow.
Some of the clay and wood papers, if
immersed in water, will disolve, leav-
ing nothing but pulp. The cheap pa
pers must have hard finish to be
written upon. Papers with rough
finish must be of linen stock or writ
ing upon them would be like writing
upon blotting paper. The best paper
is made from pure linen. Much OF it
is supplied by satisfactory cuttings.
Every time linen is washed some of the
strength of the fiber is destroyed; for
that reason the best paper requires
